Re: [iPAQ] 2210 or 4150, which one has better chance for full hardware support?

Hi Frantisek,

I can't really tell for h4xxx, but h22xx is progressing pretty quickly.

Here's what already works: pcmcia, lcd and usb.
Here's what's starting to work (no thoroughly tested yet): flash access
(at least read), LEDs, touchscreen, sound.
Here's what we still need to work on: mmc/sd (got specs), bluetooth
(some specs), power management (got specs), bootloader, battery
interface, Linux 2.6 device drivers (make sure most peripherals are
supported).

So, h22xx should have everything you need within 3 months, or hopefully
earlier.

Why don't you by a h2210 and join the porting team?

    Having you on board would be great!

    :-)

    Michael.
